The Buckeyes crossed Indiana up by employing the great Ohio fullback, Bob Ferguson, primarily as a decoy. Ferguson carried only five times in the first half as Ohio was building a 9-7 lead. INDIANA HELD Ohio State virtually in check during the opening quarter, in which the Buckeyes' deepest penetration was to the Hoosier 24-yard line. Gregg Orth, Indiana tackle, squashed the threat by recovering Spar-ma's fumble on the Hoosier 35. The next time Ohio State got that close it decided to go for three points.

Van Raaphorst's field goal from the Hoosier 30 yard line made it 3-0 for Ohio State. The first Buckeye break came on the second play following the ensuing kickoff.

But Bill Munsey averted the near-tragedy. Matt Szykowny threw a pass (1) to Felton Rogers (2), and Gopher safetyman Sandy Stephens missed what appeared to be a last-chance tackle (3).

But scurrying Munsey drew alongside Rogers (4), and slashed across (5) to knock the big Iowa end flying (6). It still wound up as a 45-yard Hawkeye gain to the Gopher 14. MINNEAPOLIS TRIBUNE PHOTOS tt at' i TiwrT i rim Bkr Wv Wwli 4St tJSfc'N Special to the Mlnneapolli Tribune BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Ohio State's undefeated Buckeyes fought off two thrusts by Indiana in the fourth quarter Saturday to preserve a 16-7 victory and their fifth Big Ten triumph. The Buckeyes are only one victory away from an un blemished conference season.

Their lone remaining league assignment is Michigan. OHIO STATE'S bruising ground strength strangled Indiana's heroic homecoming efforts. But the Buckeyes went to the forward pass to score both their touchdowns. (NEXT: Oregon at Ohio State; Indiana at West Vir ginia.) Two short tosses by quarterback Joe Sparma and a 40-yard field goal by Dick Van Raaphorst produced Ohio modest point total. Indiana, cheered by a fes tive gathering of 27,108, played its finest game of the fading season.

The aroused Hoosiers fought Ohio State on virtually even terms in the opening quarter, scored on a 25-yard pass play in the second period, then hung dog- Dkkens Calls Indiana Game Best of Season BLOOMINGTON, Ind. UP) Indiana coach Phil Dickens called it "the greatest game the kids played all year." "I just wish that I could give them something more to show for it," Dickens said after IU's 16-7 loss to third-ranked Ohio State. "Quarterback Byron Broome called the best game he has played all year," Dickens added. "The passing game pleased us very much." "It's awfully hard to bounce back after a 15-yard penalty when you get as close as we did in that last quarter, but we almost made it." Coach Woody Hayes of Ohio State thought Indiana was a fine defensive team. "They're fast, quick and dogging," Hayes said.

"They changed their defense against us. Their ground defense was set against stopping our big boy (fullback Bob Ferguson)." 26-20 from the one on second down for the touchdown, but Per-kowski missed the kick. A gamble nad a fumble then gave Notre Dame six more points. Yaccino, taking Perkowski's long kickoff deep tn the end zone, elected to run it back, but was hit on his 12 by several Irish players and fumbled, Martin Olos-ky recovering for Notre Dame. After Budka rolled out for four, George Sefcik turned offensive right end for eight and the touchdown.

Warfield jumped to make the catch, then dropped the ball. Officials ruled it a legal reception and a touchdown. The attempt for the extra point failed, but Ohio led 9-0. Indiana then quickly struck for its touchdown. After Chuck Fawcett returned the kickoff 34 yards to midfield, Cromer plunged to the Ohio 37 and Broome threw 12 yards to Buzz Martin at the 25.

Broome then passed to Bill Olsavsky, who knifed between Ohio's Dave Tingley and Houck to make the catch in the end zone. The Buckeyes drove 32 yards following a Hoosiet punt to their second and final touchdown. A fourth -down, 10-yard pass from Sparma to Chuck Bryant carried to the. Indiana 10.

It added up to the mini's seventh defeat in seven games this season. It was the fifth loss at home for the Illini.

Illinois suffered another football disaster Saturday, a 38 to 6 whipping by Michigan. From the time that Dave Raimey, Wolverine will-o-the-wisp halfback, rambled 54 yards to score in the second minute of play on a punt return, it was only a question of the final score. (NEXT: Iowa at Michigan; Illinois at Wisconsin.) Raimey later ran for 23, 13, and 16 yards from scrimmage. Bennie McRae, his accomplice in speed, flashed for 30, 46, and 20 yards in totaling 118 on this crisp, gray day. Paul Rader, second string fullback who got his chance after Bill Tunnicliff was in failed fans.

It was a bitter gift from one brother to another. Bump Elliott coaches the Wolverines and brother Pete leads the Illini. RIAMEY'S punt return touchdown came the first time Michigan had its hands on the ball. Rader's first touchdown was on a 7-yard plunge in the second period and his second on a 14-yard sprint in the fourth period. George Mans took a 7-yard pass from quarterback Dave Glinka to log another Michigan touchdown and halfback Harvey Chapman finished off the Wolverine point parade with a 10-vard run late in the final period.

ILLINOIS broke into the scoring column early in the fourth period when it was trailing, 24-0. Denny Gould bucked one yard for the touchdown. Thurmond Walker helped set up the score when he recovered a Tom Pritchard funmble on Michigan's 20. The Wolverines ground out 309 yards rushing in a powerful ground assault. The Illini could only muster 55 yards on the ground and nine first downs, compared with 16 for Michigan.

BUDKA intercepted a first down pass of Pitt and then directed Notre Dame to the lead for good. The Irish went 72 yards in eight plays.
